I bought this headlamp about a year ago and so far it has been an awesome purchase. It provides enough light for walking the trails at night as well as setting up a tent in a downpour.

So far it has excelled at every task I have used it for. The two buttons are a tad small but I haven't had any real problems with them even while wearing gloves. The boost button is an awesome feature. You can click it on to check while you're cooking at night.

The weight is another plus. You hardly notice it on your head. The batteries seem to last forever and the battery life indicator is a nice feature.

Overall I would definitely buy the same light again. No questions asked.
